Garden No 7: The Watery Weekend Retreat
Situated in a conservation area, on a fairly large, open, sylvan plot, this property is used by its owners as a weekend retreat – a place to relax and party. Water is the dominant theme and it works to stunning effect on a sloping site such as this. A large timber deck sits over a ‘spring’, with water bubbling up and out along a shallow stream bed before dropping down through a series of cascades to a large deep pool at the bottom. Wide, generous steps now lead from the sitting room up into the garden, the path meandering through woodland and climbing to an upper deck and open-sided pavilion. The perfect spot to relax and unwind!
